  Haley Stevens’ endorsement of Republican Mike Rogers has blown up in her face. Her staff is quitting. Michigan Democrats say she’s no longer welcome in the party. Chuck Schumer calls it a “despicable betrayal.” The fallout has been swift.

  Many # Democrats are essentially just # MAGA lite Some react "all Democrats the same, nothing matters, why # vote " Others "so we better show up and vote them out" The first reaction only helps centrist turds stick around.

  Economic liberalism =/ Political liberalism. The two ideas are linked around their origin, but economic liberalism was not the main economic focus of liberal politics from fairly early in the 19th century straight through the the 1980s. It is conservatives who re-ignited and promoted liberal economics starting in the 60s. And dubbed their version…

  It's a bit of an exaggeration, but not much. Would you agree that Israel/AIPAC were the central issue in the primary and thus it makes sense to say that his campaign was built around and defined by that debate? In the general, he's obviously tried to moderate, but it's clearly still the defining issue in the general (I mean, we're in a thread…

  STATEMENT FROM JUSTIN GERMAN CHIEF OF STAFF TO REP. HALEY STEVENS As Haley Stevens’ Chief of Staff for eight years, I speak on behalf of our team in wholeheartedly supporting Abdul El-Sayed for Senate. This election is too important to sow division or stand on the sidelines. We are shocked and heartbroken by Congresswoman Stevens' decision to…

  Platner was a mistake that should’ve been properly vetted They knew what Stevens was and went through with her anyways These things are still not the same Its funny though. Even in the end, Maine got Troy Jackson out of it instead of that Octogenarian that party leadership was pushing because Graham Platner so thoroughly crushed her even in spite…

  The only thing I remember from her is the spastic performance she gave at an announcement and I thought "Fuck, another child-like person making decision for others!" Some things you may not like but people who represent others need to consider what their main responsibilities are and not cater to this like some kind of internet personality. So…

  Well over half of the congressional staff to U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens quit on Sunday in direct protest of the Democrat's endorsement of Republican Mike Rogers for U.S. Senate, a surprise announcement designed to boost Rogers over Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed. Stevens' former chief of staff, Justin German, spoke publicly in a statement: "As…

  We should hold off on excusing people who crash out as being simply mentally unwell. She is a wealth white woman, a sitting representative, a functioning adult getting ready to marry a MAGA believer. There is a real history of privileged people accustomed to getting respect and being "popular" crashing out over petty things, being sore losers, and…

  “The Michigan Democratic Party kicked Rep. Haley Stevens out of its ranks Sunday, after she endorsed Michigan’s GOP Senate nominee, Mike Rogers — over Democrat Abdul El-Sayed, who defeated her in the primary,” the Washington Post reports.

  I agree, and her name is still recognizable. If she goes quiet now, she destroys any viability she has in the eyes of special interests, etc. She only just recently lost a primary, narrowly; she still has her base of legacy support. Valuable stuff for whomever pays for it. If she senses that her political career may not be viable, she likely has…

  From my understanding (and Michigan state law may be different) there are a few things you can do after Election Day to build influence- There are often bills after the campaign is over. Debts to pay off, rental agreements to ride out, staff to tie things up. Can be donated to other candidates Can be used to start a candidate-aligned PAC Can be…

  Anderson Cooper dismantles Haley Stevens in 10 minutes. You can see the smoke coming from her ears as Cooper cornered her from several angles. Related, I’ve been awarded a trophy for listening to her speak for that length of time. Truly a selfless and heroic act on my part to subject my ears to such grating noise. # uspol https://www…

  Tulsi Gabbard is somewhat beautiful. I don’t think Stevens lives up to Trump’s standards on beauty and while I’m no plastic surgeon, her facial features do not look ideal for successful Mar-a-Lago face transitioning. She will be paraded around as someone who has seen the light but I’m not convinced she will get any relevans position.
